ISA Ensemble Carols @ SM City Iloilo

Last 9 December 2009, ISAers once again were invited by the management of SM City Iloilo to render Christmas carols to the mall-goers at the mall activity center. The group was composed of 50 learners from both elementary and high school levels. Music was performed live by the ISA Springale.

	Francis Noel Chua and Aaron Babayen-on, both 3rd graders, entertained the audience with their own rendition of O Holy Night and Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.

Celebrating Mentors' Day

ISA celebrates Mentors Day ’09 on 4 December. The event was spearheaded by the ISA Student Council and the Parents’ Association. It was an opportunity to thank the facilitators for their devotion and hard work.

The event started with an opening remark from Atty. Ester Trimañez, ISA Parents’ Association President. She talked about the awards and surprises they have prepared for the mentors.

During the occasion, learners had song and dance presentations.  They also gave flowers and gifts to show how grateful they are to their mentors.  The facilitators themselves showcased their talents in a surprise dance number.

After the program, lunch followed at Emilion where each awardee gave a short message. Below is the list of the facilitators who were given special recognition.
